MANURE.

The first thought of the farmer
should be to make and use as much
manure as he can. This is the food
and substance of his crops which
grow and thrive in proportion to the
abundance of food provided for them.
The southern climate is not favora-
bic to large product Of manure,
because the feed season is short and
crops of grain yielding straw are not
grown. But our farmers should not
therefore neglect other sources from
which manure can be procured
There are many of these to which
they may turn. Animal excrement
is by no means the only available
manure. Decayed vegetable matter
is quite equal to the manure from
stables, which is nothing but decayed
or decaying vegetable matter. There
are many wasted matters which may
be gathered together and mixed with
whatever animal manure can be pro-
cured and made into compost with
much advantage, and increase the
bulk many times. The South II rich
in fertilizing substances, cotton seed,
and other wastes, the leaves of the
forests, the abundant weeds, the in
valuable phosphates of the eastern
countries, the ashes fiom the house
hold fires, our household wastes, the
from poultry and that from
our farm stock which should be in
creased as much as possible for the
as well as for their profitable
uses, all these, with the admixture of
lime to hasten decomposition would
make up compost exceedingly rich
in all the elements of the food of
plants. And the work of collecting
these materials should go on con-
stantly during every part of the year.

BOYS, HONOR YOUR CALLING.

1t is very great mistake to think
that any one calling, business or pro
tession in this country, is more re-
spectacle than that of another. There
is an idea prevailing in the minds of
a great many persons, and especially
does it prevail in the minds OF the
young men, that farming is rather a
low unpopular and degrading occu-
patton; that those who toll in the
field, amid the dust and the burning
sunshine, have no opportunity to
rise in the world, and that there is
no future in store for them, but a
life tull of hardship, struggle, and
poverty.
This is indeed very sad and great
mistake. There is no more honora-
bic and respectable calling than that
OF the Independent farmer. As an
occupation or profession, it stands
exactly upon the same plane with all
other vacations and professions, and
is Of equal dignity and responsibility
with them all. 1t is moral and ele-
waiting vocation in its character, be-
cause it is free from the influence of
vice and evil purposes. Like all oc-
equations, however, it is exactly
what you make of it. The mechan-
ic, the merchant, the teacher, the
lawyer, and the doctor, are only
what they make themselves as such.
Neither OF these vocatons or profess
sions wall elevate man above his
common level without his effort. A
man is a man, no matter what his
station or calling in life BE his vo-
cation ever so humble or exalted, his
responsibility and success must de-
pend entirely upon his department
and exertion. The man must honor
the calling, and not the calm the
man. No matter what his vocation
may be, he must honor it, and make
it respectable - C0cington Star.
